The American Foundation for the Blind (AFB) recently launched a
redesign of its main web site, . The new design is
intended to offer a more interactive, engaging experience, making it
easier for visitors to locate information on everything from accessible
technology to raising a child with visual impairment or webinars on the
latest research in the blindness field. Like the former AFB web site,
the new AFB.org is fully accessible to people with vision loss. Visitors
can change colors, font, and font size to increase content readability
or use a screen reader to access every bit of content on our pages. In
addition, the Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness (JVIB) has a
new home page, , which provides information
for the various groups that rely on JVIB, including its authors,
readers, peer reviewers, advertisers, Academy for Certification of
Vision Rehabilitation and Education Professionals certificants earning
JVIB CEUs, and the like. Readers can still access the current issue of
JVIB by visiting . For more information, contact:
